I don't personally believe in this but this is my plan...please read and give ideas if you have any.
Poverty shouldn't exist in the United States, one of the richest countries in the world. But it does. According to the US Census Bureau there are 45.7 million people that lived below the poverty line in 2007, 8.7 million of those being children. Is free health care included in this? With us being one of the richest countries in the world we should be able to afford free health care for every working individual in the United States, but we don't. My partner and I stand resolved that the United States government should substantially increase social services for persons living under the poverty line in the United States. We offer the following plan.
Plank 1: Administration. The plan will be passed by U.S. Congress and implemented by a non-profit agency, so as not to give the government too much control.
Plank 2: Mandates. The federal government should only play a limited part in the health care reform, only accounting for the taxes that are collected for this program. And to support the program in any way necessary excluding extra funding.
Plank 3: Logistics. This plan will be executed by raising or introducing taxes in three different areas that contribute to the rising cost of health care. The taxes include a High Risk Factor Tax, a Fatty Food Restaurant Tax, and a Cigarette/Alcohol Tax. We will explain the taxes in more detail later in the plan.
Contention 1 – Inherency
A.Existing federal programs do not catch the “middle class,” and “lower middle class” who make too much money for Medicaid or are too young for Medicare, excluding the V.A. (veteran's program)
Wyn Staheli, President of Instacode Institute, LLC said, * “Uninsured Americans are often uninsured because their employers don't have enough funds to pay for comprehensive health insurance because the economy is down and health insurance premiums are soaring at phenomenal rates. These rate increases are being driven by malpractice, litigation (lawsuits) , and the resulting malpractice premiums that doctors are being required to pay after a successful, (or unsuccessful, however you choose to look at it lawsuit), which drives up the cost of overhead for the provider which is then passed along as increased rates to the patient or the insurance company. Also the cost of these procedures and all of these advances in medicine is more expensive as new technology comes to market the cost of research and development is passed on as increased costs for the procedure, for the procedure or the medication.”
this is the one contention we have, any more would be appreciated as well as hams and solvency
